About

Dissonant Times is published by a small editorial team based in Eugene, Oregon, with the help of a mixed bag of volunteer contributors and advisors. We are community powered and at present our only funding comes from supporters of grassroots, citizen journalism.
Our funding is used to pay columnist stipends and will eventually enable us to become a print publication.
